Careful application with heat, either a hair dryer or heat gun on low and not too close, and they peel right off. Even the sun will often loosen them.

Are you sure it's one piece? I hope not, because it will be a different color underneath, the original un-oxidized color!

From: wetwesties@yahoogroups.com [mailto:wetwesties@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Jeremy Stovin Sent: Saturday, May 04, 2013 6:43 AM To: wetwesties@yahoogroups.com; vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: [WetWesties] Decal removal

Another silly, non-technical question from a newbie.

I have new Westfalia decals to replace the old wearing ones on the pop-top. Been waiting for warmer weather to put them on. What is the best and safest way to remove the old ones. The new decal is one big decal. The old is the individual letters.

I was originally recommended to use this attachment on my drill that is like a rubber eraser, but I had not been able to find this.

What are your recommendations? The fiberglass is dark grey, so I want to avoid discoloration. Thanks!!
